Re: [BackupPC-users] Email notifications

[Doug L. <su...@dr...>]

Ok, here is my setup:

I use a program called postie for command line sending of notifications, =

I'm sure sendmail would do just fine.

It can be obtained from http://www.infradig.com/download.shtml

Add this to the config.pl

$Conf{DumpPostUserCmd} =3D '/usr/local/bin/sendmailend.sh $user $xferOK $=
host $type';

Here is a sample of my sendmailend.sh

#!/bin/sh

#########################################################################=
################

### Possible exit codes.  0 =3D Failure, 1 =3D Success, BLANK =3D Non-Cri=
tical 
failure

#########################################################################=
################

<>

if [ $2 =3D 1 ]

then

#########################################################################=
##################

### HTML layout for SUCCESS message to end user, $1 =3D Email, $2 =3D Exi=
t 
Code, $3 =3D Asset Tag, $4=3D  Type of Backup

#########################################################################=
################## 


/bin/echo 'some HTML code here' > /backupdata/conf/success/$1.html      
          ## Only 1 Greater then sign here, to over write the previous 
notification.
/bin/echo 'some more HTML code here' >> /backupdata/conf/success/$1.html =

    ## Two Greater then signs here to append the rest of the HTML message=

/bin/echo 'more of the same' >>/backupdata/conf/success/$1.html         
               ## NOTE:  Does not have to be HTML, can be anything.


#########################################################################=
##################

### E-Mail handling routine.  If success, email end user and log.  If 
fail, note in log.txt

#########################################################################=
##################

/usr/local/bin/postie -gmt -host:smtp.mail.com -to:$1 
-from:Bac...@ma... -s:'Asset Tag: '$3 
-a:/backupdata/conf/success/$1.html -nomsg

/bin/echo `date` 'Exit code:(' $2 ') Completion E-Mail sent to:(' $1' 
)'  >>/backupdata/conf/log.txt

else

/bin/echo `date` 'Exit code:(' $2 ') Asset Tag:(' $3') E-Mail:(' $1' )'  =

 >>/backupdata/conf/log.txt
